Sonido Pirata is an exhibition exploring sound, memory, and cultural history. In Latin America it is common for popular music to be pirated and sold by street vendors as commercial merchandise. The artists in this exhibition take their cue from this phenomenon of sonido pirata (literally, "pirated sound"), making use of appropriated sounds and images and utilizing approaches to art-making that mimic and reflect black market economies. Curated by Julio Cesar Morales. Featured artists: Facundo Argañaraz, Nao Bustamante, Juan Capistran, Sofia Cordova, Ana Teresa Fernandez, Josh Kun, Juan Luna-Avin, Eamon Ore-Giron, Shizu Saldamando, Torolab, Cristina Victor. Exhibition takes place at Sonoma Valley Museum of Art, 551 Broadway, just off the Sonoma Town Plaza.
